mitt romney that was introduced to 58 million voters the other night was a man we have never seen before. he was warm, he was gracious, he had an ease about him, he was moderate, he didn't scare people, and i think he brought waivering republicans back into the fold and gave a rational for his candidacy. people were pulling their hair out in the week before. i like the pent up demand because people wanted to believe in. president obama and joe biden, of course, can correct this. i think it's very correctable. >> it's all about motivation. you want to see your guy out there going after it, never backing down, always being on the forefront of the issues and never sidestepping. this was just such a missed opportunity. now the race is tight. many liberals think it shouldn't be right now, but it is. should the focus be on more than ohio? or is ohio the ball game right now? >> ohio is a big part of the ball game, but you look at today's polls, the focus has to be on more than ohio. there are other states where president obama was ahead where he's got to hold that lead now. and so he can't spen
